Terms of Service

1. Agreement to Terms

By accessing or using MoneyMetricLab.com ("the Site," "we," "us," or "our"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the Site.

These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User," "you," or "your") and MoneyMetricLab.

2. Description of Service

MoneyMetricLab provides free online finance calculators and educational content related to personal finance, taxation, and financial planning. Our calculators are intended for general informational and educational purposes only.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) to use the Site. By using the Site, you represent and warrant that:

• You meet the age requirement
• You have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement

4. NOT Financial, Tax, or Legal Advice

This is the most important section. Please read carefully.

The information, calculators, and content on MoneyMetricLab are provided for informational and educational purposes only. Nothing on this Site constitutes:

• Personalized financial advice
• Tax preparation or tax planning advice
• Legal advice
• Investment advice
• An offer or solicitation to buy or sell any security or financial product
• A substitute for professional consultation

Even though our content is reviewed by a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), this does not create a CPA-client relationship between you and MoneyMetricLab or its team members. Our calculators provide estimates based on general information and may not reflect your specific situation.

Always consult a qualified professional (CPA, tax attorney, financial advisor, etc.) before making financial decisions based on calculator results or any content on this Site.

While we work diligently to ensure accuracy:

• Tax laws and regulations change frequently
• Calculator outputs are based on the inputs you provide
• Edge cases and unusual situations may not be handled correctly
• Federal, state, and local laws may have nuances not reflected in our tools

We make no representations or warranties about the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of information on the Site. We update content based on our best understanding of current laws, but you should verify critical figures against official government sources (IRS, state tax authorities, etc.).
